[I've Already Confronted the Five Kage, and the System Just Arrived!] Chapter 262 (Patreon)

Gensou blinked, noticing that Naruto had not used this time to unlock Sage of Six Paths Mode. Relaxing slightly, he lowered the black rod from his shoulder, preparing for a decisive battle to resolve this nuisance once and for all.

Although wary of the Sage of Six Paths, Gensou didn't see him as omnipotent.

Even during his life, the Sage of Six Paths couldn't achieve omniscience, let alone after his death.

In Gensou's assessment, the Sage of Six Paths likely existed in the ninja world as chakra but remained in a dormant state most of the time, unaware of current events unless triggered by significant disruptions—such as the reappearance of the Ten-Tails or Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.

This perspective aligned with the Sage's behavior in the original story, only appearing when events tied to him, such as the rise of the Ten-Tails, demanded his intervention.

As for Asura and Indra's reincarnations, their chakra had been reincarnated countless times over the millennia. Even in instances where Asura and Indra's incarnations clashed, such as with Hashirama and Madara, the Sage had not intervened.

Thus, as long as the Ten-Tails wasn't revived, Gensou had no reason to concern himself with the Sage of Six Paths.

Killing Naruto, the reincarnation of Asura, wouldn't matter either.

"Grandpa Toad, it's time to act!"

Naruto, filled with an unprecedented sense of strength and the belief he could now take on Gensou, performed a familiar hand sign.

"Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

A massive plume of white smoke erupted, and hundreds of clones, each cloaked in golden chakra, appeared across the battlefield.

"Let's go, everyone!"

With a rallying cry that echoed through the air, the clone army charged at Gensou with a tidal wave of dust trailing behind them.

Gensou calmly surveyed the scene and formed a single hand sign.

"Katon: Gōka Mekkyaku!"

With senjutsu-enhanced chakra, a massive sea of flames surged from Gensou's mouth, engulfing everything in its path.

"Suiton: Suijinchu!"

From behind, the Great Toad Sage countered with a colossal water sphere resembling a meteor, which crashed into the flames, spreading in all directions.

Hissssss!
A thick cloud of steam rose as the water extinguished the fire.

"Well done, Grandpa Toad!" Naruto shouted in encouragement.

With the path cleared, the shadow clone army surged forward with renewed vigor.

Gensou glanced briefly at the Great Toad Sage, who was staying back and providing support, before flicking a finger.

One of the Truth-Seeking Balls behind him flew to his front and expanded into a massive fan, sweeping horizontally across the charging clones.

Bang! Bang! Bang!
The leading clones were instantly obliterated into puffs of white smoke.

"Don't get cocky!"

Naruto's angry voice rang out as clones in the middle of the formation began forming spiraling orbs.

"Senpō: Rasengan!"

Dozens of clones, each wielding a senjutsu-enhanced Rasengan, rushed forward and slammed their attacks into the Truth-Seeking Ball fan.

Although the Truth-Seeking Ball wasn't harmed by the senjutsu, the immense force of the impact sent it hurtling backward.

This wasn't all.

Another wave of clones extended numerous golden chakra arms, reaching out like a net to ensnare Gensou.

Standing still, Gensou summoned another Truth-Seeking Ball to form a spherical barrier, blocking the golden arms.

"This is it!"

With two clones assisting him, Naruto raised a massive spinning weapon.

"Senpō: Fūton: Chō Ōdama Rasenshuriken!"

After years of refining the Rasenshuriken, especially with the inspiration of Gensou's earlier techniques, Naruto had perfected his own senjutsu-enhanced version.

The screeching sound of spinning wind filled the air as Naruto hurled the enormous Rasenshuriken forward.

In an instant, it reached Gensou's barrier.

Flash!

BOOM!

A deafening explosion tore through the battlefield, the Rasenshuriken's destructive power raising a towering plume of dust and debris.

The impact forced one of Gensou's unused Truth-Seeking Balls, previously floating behind him, to ricochet away from the blast.

"Only one left!" Naruto exclaimed, his eyes fixed on the Truth-Seeking Ball barrier. It had visibly shifted and now appeared unstable.

Summoning more clones, Naruto prepared to press the attack.

At that moment, the Great Toad Sage leapt into action, opening its mouth to unleash an immense gravitational force.

Whoosh!

Rocks and debris were sucked into the sage's mouth, disappearing into another dimension.

The real target, Gensou's Truth-Seeking Ball barrier, was also caught in the pull. The barrier broke away from Gensou, hurtling toward the Great Toad Sage.

Keeping its distance, the sage immediately leapt away to avoid contact with the ball.

"Well done, Grandpa Toad!"

Naruto divided his newly summoned clones into three groups. One group focused on preventing the Truth-Seeking Balls from returning to Gensou, while the others, led by Naruto himself, charged at Gensou to take advantage of the opportunity.

One clone, leading the charge, saw Gensou standing alone with only a black rod in hand. Excited, the clone yelled out:
"Gensou doesn't have his Truth-Seeking Balls anymore! Everyone—"

Bang!

The clone didn't finish its sentence before a black rod struck its forehead, dispelling it instantly.

The rod retracted into a firm, steady hand.

Gensou lifted his gaze, his expression calm as he addressed the mass of clones surging toward him.

"Had enough fun yet?"
